Deep Ellum

Established in 1873 and located south of Lakewood, east of downtown, and north (ish) of Fair Park is [Deep Ellum, Texas](http://deepellumtexas.com/) - a unique intersection of art, music, history, amazing food, and companies who are doing something different. Spread primarily across Elm, Main and Commerce streets, you are always footsteps away from finding something unique you'll want to tell your friends about.

Braindead Brewing Co.

A relative newcomer to Deep Ellum, Braindead Brewing Co. is firing on all cylinders. This brewery currently has four unique ales brewed in-house. Additionally, their menu, featuring elevated "pub" style fare - includes a knock-out burger and pork chop, fantastic brussels sprouts - even duck fat popped popcorn. You had us at duck fat! Beyond just stopping in to sample the beers and enjoy good food, BBC has cool events, including beer dinners which allow visitors to taste a range of beers paired with a tasting menu. Follow them on social media for all the details, or just swing by - they are open all week - come back for the Sunday brunch - and the T.A.B.L.E. Sandwich (bacon, arugula, egg, avocado, aioli) if you've had a few beers there the night before.
